Togni Reagent II

1-Trifluoromethyl-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one (Togni Reagent II) is a novel electrophilic trifluoromethylating reagent, which was developed by Togni et al. Togni Reagent II enables it to trifluoromethylate various substrates, as well as 1-trifluoromethyl-3,3-dimethyl-1,2-benziodoxole (Togni Reagent). In particular, it has been reported that the reaction of Togni Reagent II and olefins affords the corresponding allylic trifluoromethylated compounds.
*Togni Reagent II (T3014) contains diatomaceous earth because of reducing explosibility.
